I'd like to remove the status bar at the top of the screen.
This does not work:
func application
(application: UIApplication,
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: NSDictionary?)
-> Bool
{
application.statusBarHidden = true
return true
}
I've also tried:
func application
(application: UIApplication,
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: NSDictionary?)
-> Bool
{
self.window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds)
var controller = UIViewController()
application.statusBarHidden = true
controller.setNeedsStatusBarAppearanceUpdate()
var view = UIView(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 568))
view.backgroundColor = UIColor.redColor()
controller.view = view
var label = UILabel(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 21))
label.center = CGPointMake(160, 284)
label.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.Center
label.text = "Hello World"
controller.view.addSubview(label)
self.window!.rootViewController = controller
self.window!.makeKeyAndVisible()
return true
}
You really should implement prefersStatusBarHidden on your view controller(s):
Swift 3 and later
override var prefersStatusBarHidden: Bool {
return true
}
